Developers of Springwoods Village announced plans Tuesday for a Town Center including a lake, full-service hotel, luxury apartments and retail on the 1,800-acre mixed-use community designed to accommodate energy companies moving away from Houston’s center and their employees.

CDC Houston said the public plaza and other facilities near the Town Lake will be a focal point for the community and region. The real estate company estimates tens of thousands energy company employees eventually head to the new ExxonMobil campus and Southwestern Energy Co. The development is slated to be completed by 2015.

Springwoods Village is a $10-billion, 1,800-acre, mixed-use community situated along the west side of Interstate 45 between Springwoods Village Parkway and Grand Parkway. The Texas Department of Transportation broke ground recently on the portions of the Grand Parkway that run between U.S. 59 and U.S. 290.

Phase One of Town Center will include approximately 250 luxury apartment homes; a full-service hotel; office space in a variety of configurations; and up to 100,000 square feet of retail space. Construction is scheduled to begin in early 2014.

“Town Center will be the heart and soul of Springwoods Village because it will be where people go to eat, play, meet and relax,” said Keith Simon, executive vice president of CDC, in a statement. “We will create a space that invites people to enjoy the beautiful Town Lake and plaza, whether they are taking a lunch break, dining out for dinner or shopping.”
